These volleyball players were looking to jump higher before season tryouts and of the 12 participants from local middle school and high schools near Oakland County averaged 1 inch increase in their vertical jump in the short time they had to workout. You CAN jump higher and improve your performance and these young girls participated in a 4-week volleyball vertical jump program hosted by SuperNOVA (Clarkston, Michigan) and Athletic Preparation (Auburn Hills, Michigan). To perform depth jumps properly: 1) Start by standing on top of a sturdy platform or bench. Jump onto the box, landing softly, then jump back down and repeat. Stand facing a sturdy volleyball jump box or bench. NOTE: This elastic property must be trained, so your jump might get worse initially. Explosively jump up, extending your legs fully, and land softly back in a squat position. Actively lower yourself (attack the floor) and then push off to take advantage of the elastic property of your muscles. Jumping higher is something you can improve for volleyball with the proper training, workouts and coaching. Don’t just let gravity lower you to the ground before jumping.
